The morning, and the sunset
Each little flower that opens,
That lighteth up the sky,
How great is God Almighty,
He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell
He made them, every one.
The ripe fruits in the garden,—
The Lord God made them all.
He made their tiny wings.
We gather every day,—
God made them, high or lowly,
All creatures great and small,
All things bright and beautiful,
 
And ordered their estate.
The tall trees in the greenwood,
All things wise and wonderful,—
He made their glowing colors,
Who hath made all things well.
The pleasant summer sun,
 
The purple-headed mountain,
Each little bird that sings,—
 
The poor man at his gate,
The river running by,
The rushes by the water
The rich man in his castle,
 
The meadows where we play,
The cold wind in the winter,
